Interoperability
Abstract
This project supports both near-term and long-term DoD UAS Integration goals by primarily focusing on (1) the safe and effective integration of UAS within civil and expeditionary airspace and (2) the development of standards, concepts, and guidance to support this integration. In the near-term, this project is focused on the development of concepts and prototype systems that support both the DoD UAS integration mission and DoD UAS security mission. This effort includes the development and integration of the following current airspace access and integration system initiatives: (1) COA Approval Processing System (CAPS), (2) UAS Drone Zone, (3) Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability (LAANC), and (4) UAS Traffic Management (UTM). The long-term goal of this project is to establish the ability for DoD UAS to safely, effectively, and routinely operate beyond visual line of sight in U.S. national, foreign national, international, training, and combat airspace. The results from this effort will be shared with federal partners, to include the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), in order to help shape the development of LAANC and UTM related concepts, technology, and rule making.
